Dr Roby Abeles has been a trauma and addiction therapist for over 35 years, having begun her addiction treatment training at The Betty Ford Center in California, USA in 1989.
Her clients come from all over Australia and overseas.
Roby began using Brainspotting in 2004, after participating in the second BSP training David Grand ever presented in the United States.
She attended this training after having a BSP session with David in September that year, at an International EMDR Conference in Montreal, Canada, and being astonished about how completely it resolved the issue she had chosen to work on.
Five years later, in December, 2009, Dr Roby brought David Grand to teach the very first BSP Phases 1 & 2 in Sydney to a small group of enthused Australian EMDR therapists.
It was at this time that David introduced Roby to Salene Souza, which has resulted in a wonderful professional partnership and personal friendship.
